That's a great page to put together. Thanks for that. I'm sure a lot of people will find it useful.

Mr brightside's photos from Fairmile today, overexposed as usual! I can recommend the Lifeventure lightweight trekking umbrella for days like today, it was about as tiring as holding up a biro.
Smashing looking course and plenty of on your arse moments coming into the gill. Descent of the day definitely goes to Wharfedale competitor No. 275, why take it steady when you can just hurl yourself down? I salute your style sir.

Thanks for the pics. Glad I appeared on one.
Really great race. Lovely weather as well:)
Maybe it's just me, but I'm sure I counted about 20 false summits on the ascent! Did me the world of good mentally!
I was looking out for anyone i knew but it's hard to recognise people when they're sliding down a gill on their arse soaked to the skin! The only person i recognised was runner 429, i've no idea who he is but we've spoken randomly in the past. Just looked back through the photos Ali and i still can't find you, obviously not a good hair day for any of the field!
I'm just building distance up now, hopefully i'll be doing Arant Haw in april. My knee's not better although it's slightly less troublesome. I'm back with the NHS again now, they've got me with the physios but i think the end of the road, ultimately, will be a steroid injection.
Mr B, didnt realise you were there. Sadly I was not running this week but it would have been good to meet you. Did you chat briefly to Tim at the end re collecting flags? Carrying a flask I think. I was in the green jacket next to Tim looking like a drowned rat.
Hope you can make Arant Haw. Can be tricky to spot Ali when he's moving that fast mind, but I'm sure he would've stopped to say hello as he passed had he recognised you, he is a gentleman!
